DELIAH'S GONE 7
(Johnny Cash)

Delia, oh Delia
Delia all my life
If I hadden-a shot poor Delia
I'd-a had her for my wife
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone

I went up to Memphis
And I met Delia there
Found her in her parlor
And I tied her to her chair
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone

She was low-down and triflin'
And she was cold and mean
Kind of evil make me want to
Grab my sub-mo-chine
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone

First time I shot her
I shot her in the side
Hard to watch her suffer
But with the second shot she died
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone

But Jailer, oh Jailer
Jailer, I can't sleep
'Cause all around my bedside
I hear the patter of Delia's feet
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone

So if your woman's devilish
You can let her run
Or you can bring her down and do her like
Delia got done
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone
Delia's gone, one more round, Delia's gone
